This letter, dated May 16, 1989, from Vera King Farris, President of Stockton State College, to Mr. Elie Wiesel, acknowledges receipt of his letter of recommendation regarding the Ida E.

The letter highlights the importance of the chosen professor in leading the college's Holocaust Studies Program and serving as a liaison for the Holocaust Resource Center.

This is a personal letter from "Dave", identified as the Commander of United States Central Command, to "Elie". Dave thanks Elie for a kind note following his own "dehydration incident" and expresses hope for Elie's recovery from a similar episode. He apologizes for his inability to attend a Hudson Institute event on Thursday evening due to "dramatic developments of the past week", explaining that he needed to focus on an urgent task. This task is clarified as preparing for a "confirmation hearing on Tuesday" and an immediate "deployment" afterwards, with a hint that this deployment might be to Afghanistan. The letter concludes with a renewed expression of gratitude for Elie's friendship and kinship. The document bears a "received" stamp dated July 7, 2010.

This is a handwritten thank-you note from Grace Anne Koppel, wife of Ted Koppel, to Marion and Elie Wiesel, dated May 28, 2003. Grace expresses her deep gratitude and joy for precious moments shared with them, stating she is still "floating" after an event that occurred on "the 17th day of May" and her "memory bank is very full." On the reverse side, there's a whimsical, separate note from the same hand discussing not wearing black if one knew they were to be a bride, and not wearing a tiara, unlike "the new Mrs. Dulisse." This strongly suggests the occasion for the thank-you was a wedding.
